can handle the PM but you have to work together and run it like a business.

Quote from @Nick Henry: Hi there - I am starting out in real estate investing and am trying to build a portfolio of rentals that can produce enough cash flow for me to eventually leave my job and make real estate my main job.

It's great that you're focusing on building a solid foundation before diving into real estate.

It's easy to bite off more than you can chew in this business and that's especially not a good idea for your first deal.

Metro Detroit has what 99% of Real Estate Investors want.

Real Estate Commissions in some/many states may prohibit this.

Dennis' dad and I actually tripped over something similar back in Chandler.. we learned to tap into city planning websites and even call the permit offices directly to get a real sense of their backlogs.

Our names go on title and our loans have the real estate as collateral so they are “secured loans.”  

There is no real risk. 

I’m currently on the hunt for my next real estate deal and have narrowed my focus to Columbus, Ohio.
